In Theorem 1, we generalize the results of Szabo for Berwald metrics that are not necessary strictly convex: we show that for every Berwald metric F there always exists a Riemannian metric affine equivalent to F. As an application we show…

The purpose of this new survey paper is, among other things, to collect in one place most of the articles on cone (abstract, K-metric) spaces, published after 2007. This list can be useful to young researchers trying to work in this part of…

We study the Minkowski problem corresponding to the p-harmonic measures and obtain results previously known for harmonic measures due to Jerison. We show that a class of Borel measures on spheres can be prescribed by p-harmonic measures on…

We study the problem of reconstructing a positive discrete measure on a compact set $K \subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$ from a finite set of moments (possibly known only approximately) via convex optimization. We give new uniqueness results, new…

Determining the measurement uncertainty region is a difficult problem for generic sets of observables. For this reason the literature on exact measurement uncertainty regions is focused on symmetric sets of observables, where the symmetries…

We establish the log-concavity of the volume of central sections of dilations of the cross-polytope (the strong B-inequality for the cross-polytope and Lebesgue measure restricted to an arbitrary subspace).

We prove that the log-Brunn-Minkowski inequality (log-BMI) for the Lebesque measure in dimension $n$ would imply the log-BMI and, therefore, the B-conjecture for any log-concave density in dimension $n$. As a consequence, we prove the…

One of the most fruitful results from Minkowski's geometric viewpoint on number theory is his so called 1st Fundamental Theorem. It provides an optimal upper bound for the volume of an o-symmetric convex body whose only interior lattice…

In this paper, studying the inverse problem, we establish a curvature compatibility condition on a spherically symmetric Finsler metric. As an application, we characterize the spherically symmetric metrics of scalar curvature. We construct…

The paper is to prove the Gaussian correlation conjecture stating that, under the standard Gaussian measure, the measure of the intersection of any two symmetric convex sets is greater than or equal to the product of their measures.…
